I checked and couldn't find anything solid... do they transfer?

I.e. buff up, cast pet, drop con, str/con and then rebuff pet... Would that be any different than summoning the pet while you're unbuffed and buffing the pet?

And AF/Spec AF, do they affect pets? I've read stuff that goes both ways.

I know this question is asked a lot but I wanted a definitive answer. Thanks in advance!

double buffing doesnt work so only put dex/quick,dex,acuity on shade. Base af works on pets but Spec AF does not.

Spent some time trying to get this figured out myself, and think I've got it definitively nailed down. Check out:

Shade buffs do not transfer to the pet at all.

Edit: That includes buffing yourself and then summoning; it doesn't work.

Yes, you're absolutely correct. I didn't consider the fact that it might treat stats gained from equipment differently from stats gained through buffs. I ran a quick test to find out for sure, and came up with..


Tests:
1) Unbuffed necromancer, summoned pet with 132 con, 1041 hps.
2) Buffed necromancer, summoned pet with 284 con, 1458 hps.

Results:
1) 1894 damage to kill the abomination
2) 1886 damage to kill the abomination

Close enough for me. Thanks, Memyrlei.

BUFFS ON NECRO...

DEX/ACQUITY/DEX+QUI

BUFFS ON NECRO PET

STR/DEX/CON/AF/STR+CON/DEX+QUI/9% ABS

so the above is missing nothing and has nothing useless, correct?

I also put the health regen buff on the abomination, personally.
